Kari’s Tip #115: Have you heard 👂of Microsoft Loop ?

Hi there! 😊
It’s that time again—another quick tip to help you save time and feel more confident using Microsoft 365 at work! GIve me 5 minutes - and learn about Loop.
We’ve talked a lot about OneNote in the past, but now Microsoft has introduced something new: Microsoft Loop. And naturally, the big question is:
👉 “Is Loop just another version of OneNote?”
Short answer? Nope. And today I’ll show you why!
🌀What is Microsoft Loop?
Loop is Microsoft’s latest tool to help you collaborate in real time—without bouncing between emails, Teams chats, and documents.
🧱 Think of it like smart sticky notes you can drop into a message, email, or document.
✍️ You and your coworkers can all edit them at the same time.
🔄 And no matter where they show up—Outlook, Teams, or Word—they always stay in sync.
